The Colts and Jaguars are looking to give the AFC South its first win of the season. Both teams had opportunities to seal a win in Week 1, but weren’t able to do so. Now, they’ll get a rematch of Week 18 last year, when the Jaguars kept the Colts out of the playoffs.

Here are three prop bets to key in on for Colts vs. Jaguars, with odds from FanDuel.

Best Prop Bets For Colts-Jaguars Week 2

  • Jonathan Taylor OVER 2.5 Receptions
  • Zay Jones OVER 40.5 Receiving Yards
  • Julio Jones To Score A Touchdown

Jonathan Taylor OVER 2.5 Receptions

I want to bet on Jonathan Taylor, but I don’t want to back his rushing prop that’s over 100 yards. Instead, I see value in his receptions prop, because even with Nyheim Hines, Taylor is still very involved in the passing games. He had seven targets last week, bringing in four of them. With Michael Pittman Jr. out, Taylor is going to see a lot of the workload on the ground and through the air. 

Zay Jones OVER 40.5 Receiving Yards

Jones, although not the most well known receiver on the Jaguars, was one of the most impactful pass catchers in Week 1. Jones’ line intrigues me. Not only because he caught 65 yards last week, but also because he saw nine targets. The opportunities are going to be there for him to be successful. 

James Robinson To Score A Touchdown

Robinson stole the show in Week 1, showing that he was the top back in the committee. He scored twice last week, once rushing and once receiving. The Colts allowed 109 total yards to the Texans’ two running backs in Week 1. Robinson is going to fed more often than Dameon Pierce and Rex Burkhead and will be called upon should the Jaguars get close. Trust him.
